See what animation was like in the 70's!

Posted by MaestroRage - October 17th, 2008


My orchestra teacher and my good friend showed me a clip that he and 2 other friends had made in University back in the early 70's. They made this clip using nothing but tapes and of course still photography. It's damn fascinating to see some of the weird things they did with it. Sadly the sound track has been lost for the video (a miracle the video was salvaged) I am considering creating an experimental soundtrack of my own for good practice.

I hear that animation majors have to so something like this. I remember JohnnyUtah talking about doing something like this for an animation project he did once.

Enjoy the lost arts of the 70's! Also please don't ask me how they did what's here... the only thing I recognize is the constructive/deconstructive interference of sound waves at the end. Even that I don't know how they captured that.

Can you explain what it was? Or ment to look like?
I know technology wasn't that advanced in the 70's but i do know they made stuff better then this. Ah well, abstract ftw!

I don't disagree. This was really more of an exploration to what they could do, I don't think they were trying to push any technological limits then. All I know for certain is that the 1:08 it's a panshot of scrap metal, at 2:18 it's a close up of crystal ice melting, and at 2:44 deconstructive/constructive interference waves of sound.

It is pretty abstract though, thanks for watching!

trippy

That's fascinating to watch. It's a shame you don't know what it was about. The music would have really helped :)

I don't really think it was about anything specific... but I do agree a soundtrack for it would help tons.

Thanks for watching!

someone in drug can undestand this animation, there is someone in the public that can tell us what is is, anyway is very interestinig

hahaha, you may be right. Hell if i'm going to interpret it XD. Thanks for watching :]

Experimental fulms!! :D

;D!

Pretty creepy, definately a product of its era.

a shame that era is long gone eh? It is pretty creepy. I think it's creepier without sound then if I put something on it...

thanks for watching!

This is a great video it has something you don't see much these days.
Innovation.

it really does. I like to watch it, sometimes I think it would be better off without any kind of sound at all. I know in a dark room watching it is just tense. I love it.

Thanks for watching!

Wow.
See what animation was like in the 40's!
